Hey all, glad you are here because I really need some help.
I am new to multirotors, originally a filmaker but have always been a tinkerer. I started with a Phantom 2 and was hooked. I tinkered and modified the Phantom until I needed to step up to something more professional. I have been flying the Inspire for several months and have really needed to carry larger cameras. So, I decided to build a heavy lift machine from the ground up.
Here is what I have assembled:
Gaui MRT 1300 "O"
DJI A2
T-Motor U7
T-Motor 18x6
T-Motor 80A ESC
2x Tattu 6 cell 22.2v 1600mAh Lipo's
Futaba 14SG
I have finished assembly but it seams like I might be missing something. I took the machine out for the maiden flight and as I throttled up I notice the aircraft wants to pull a little to one side instead of strait up, but not all the time. Because the aircraft seamed like it might not be operating properly I strapped it down to a work bench so I could give it a little more power and observe its behavior.
Again, its running but judging from my little experience with the Phantom and Inspire, the motors seam like they might be a little out of sync. The IMU is in the center of the frame, oriented and calibrated. I feel like maybe I have missed something with the motors or ESC's. Again, forgive me if I have missed something simple but this is my first rodeo.
Thanks for your help!
